POPULARITY.

Popularity! Who can beat druggist at
that? How could the public get along
without the genial, accommodating drug
gist? He is the general information pur-
veyor to suffering humanity. If a man
wishes to know the residence of Bill Jones,
the druggist helps him out. If he wishes
to wait for a car, he steps into the drug
store and seats himself in the comfortable
chair awaiting just such as he. If he wishes
stamp, the druggist will not only sell it to
him, but lick it, too. if necessary. Just
such druggist is j. p. Allen, the propre-
tor OF Aliens drug store, known to every
one The public are accustomed to be ac-
commOdated at his old stand, corner Sev-
enth and Jackson streets. and are deeply
interested in the fact that he has moved to
Ala jackson street, next to International
hotel, and diagonaliy opposite to his we'll
known old stand. Mr.. Allen has been in
the retail drug business in ST. Paul for over
twenty-five years, and has won an enviable
position among the go-ahead merchants of
this CITY.

Considerable comment is heard because
Prof. y. NJ. Weles, OF Redwood Falls, has
not so arranged his school work, that he may
be in the Twin Cities during the visit OF Sam
Jones. Mr. Welles is an intimate friend of
Mr.. Jones' and 1t will be remembered, gave
him valuable assistance in his work at Red
Rock camp meeting last summer. Mr. Jones,
1t is understood, has as yet not sent any
formal request OF Mr.. Welles to be present
this season.
Senator Davis seems to have assumed a
more portly men since his recent high hon
ors. At the Mead trial he wears his black
Prince Albert coat buttoned squarely
up in front, and when he leaves
his chair directly. in front of
Judge Brill, for drink of ice water, rs he
does occasionally, his portlv form appears in
all its pOrtliness. The senator wears pair
of ordinary looking, steel-bowed spectacles,
which give him q scholarly appearance that is
especially appropriate. Sometimes when he
addresses the court he advances close up to
the clerks box and places his hands on the
! railing, and then speaks in very quiet tone
-
The full heard that Frank Mead has grown
during the past few months is somewhat gray
and gives him an older appearance than when
he wore simply Il mlstache. He, too, wears
pair of steel-bowed spectaces, and from his
appearance and the position he occupies in
the court room is frequently mistaken for one
of the attorneys, in the case.

1t is of some advantage to have ones name
in the '.Blue Dcok'' after all. For at least one
entertainment of the not far distant future,
which is announced IS ian invitation affair,
the blue book is being used TO secure list, it
being the intention to give every fortunate
individual whose name is mentioned between
the blue covers, sold to the occasion. 1t
has the advantage over the directory of not
containing quite so many names.

When the board of fire commissioners at
its meeting last night opened bids for build
inc the new engine houses at Merriam Park
and Hamine, the lowest bidders were
found to be Rundel & King. a Minneapolis
firm. who offered to take the contracts for
the Merriam Park house at SO, 600 and for
the Hamline house at SO, 700. There were
several bids from ST. Paul contractors, the
lowest being that of j, Ii. Donahue, whose
estimates were Sl1, 800 for the Merriam
Park house, and Sl1, 40 for the Hamline
house. Commissioner Martin said he was
in favor of awarding the job TO the st. Paul
man. ANYWAY Commissioner Parker
thought the Minneapolis firm ought to have
il, because they We're the lowest bidders.
Commissioner Prendergast, the only re-
naming member present, said if 1t was his
work he would rather give it to st. Paul
firm, even if he did have 10 pay little
more The matter was referred to com
mttee of the present board, and after some
private consultation that committee re-
ported favoring the award to Donahue and
then adopted its own report
Chief Black c0mplalneu 10 the Doatu
that the gas for the central hall was cost
ing altogether too much, averaging as high
as $50 monthly, and that the
building could be better lighted with
.ncandescent electric lamps at cost OF
S33. 25. The matter was referred to
the secretary to inquire whether the Guy
was bound by contract with the gas com-
pany, and ii so to make request upon the
council that the board be given authority to
contract for lighting all department build
ings. Chief Black reported the following
vacancies and appointments. Resigned:

CENTRAL PARK ENLARGEMENT.

CENTRAL HAIth tNi.Ait l.
The consideration of the enlargement of
Central park was brought before the board
by Mr.. Murray Offering tile following reso-
luton:
That the enlargement of Central park,
which is now under consideration by the park
commission of this city. is recommended TO
the favorable consideration of said counts
sion. ..-.iE.
The resolution was strongly sustained by
d. Il. NoyeS. who pointed out the need OF
lis being enlarged. and also the necessity of
acting Immediately in the matter as pe0-
pie were just about ready TO put in founda
tons for houses. The expense will be
about $500 and by this addition the
park would be doubled in size. About half
of this sum would come out of the prop
erty Mr.. Seabury moved suspension of
the rules and that the resolution be put
upon its passage. Mr.. HOdgson objected.
He thought the price too high. and that
land could he had somewhere else cheaper.
Mr.. Lindeke explained that the strip of
ground would front one side on Cedar and
the other Oh the park l,050 feet long. Mr..
I.enau did not believe Central park was
suitable for park any way, and it would be
a waste of money to eXpend this amount on
it, On q vote being taken the resolution
was adopted.

The Price of Building.

The committee on real estate of the board
of education held a long session last evening.
The only business transacted was the cons.d-
Grafton of the plans for the proposed addi-
tionS to the school houses. Considerable dis
cussiOn arose over the fact that the cost of
the erection of these buildings is greater this
year than ever before. This was explained
by the fact that labor and material are higher
priced than they have been in other years.
After considerable discussion it was decided
to refer the plans back to the board without
special recommendation, and it was thought
they would be adopted at the next meeting of
the board. The question of steam heating
was not brought I'D.

GREAT PERFORMANCE.
Thatcher, Primrose and West Give
the Best minstrel show of the
Season to- IL Crowded House Last

1t was densely packed house and two
hours of solid fun ut the Grand last night.
Thatcher, Primrose and West established
their claim TO having the best minstrel com
bination on the continent. 1t is none of your
cheStnuty affairs of dozen or two men in
burnt cork cracking stale jokes that we
heard in childhood days, but it Is an organi-
cation of artists, who exhibit intelligent
method in all they do and who give spice
and originality to the whole performance
which is absolutely refreshing in these days
of bad minstrel shows. OF course, George
Thatcher, Billy West and George Primrose
constitute trio who are capable of giving an
entertaining performance at any time. And
the same may be said of Billy Rice. He is Il
whole show himself. Like Stuart Robson, all
he has to do to provoke IL laugh. IS to show
his face and bat his eye But they have as
ISOLATED with them a most excellent company
of burnt bork artists whose specaltieS are all
of the first class The songs are new and all
of them good. The Knights Templar parade
was fine drill exhibition. The silent amuse-
ment act by Griffin and Marks, the musical
performance by Powers, Dewitt, Edwards
Holey, and the frog scene by Delhaver and
Guyer were all novel and entertaining. The
! bureSque on the American Opera company
is the only minstrel afterpiece that has ever
been here which was worth Il baubee. 1t is a
very clever piece Of comedy work and is a
good take-of on Theodore Thomas effort TO
run high pressure opera without steam.
